David Unger, 55, of Harrison Township, was arrested in connection with a Sept. 29 double shooting. He was convicted of killing Mark Siecinski, 56, and injuring a 63-year-old man.

A judge sentenced Unger to life in prison without the possiblity of parole. He made a short statement, telling the court he is innocent.
